does anyone have any experince with the BENQ line of " color accurate" monitors the PV3200PT or the PV270? I want to start playing with color a bit - don't have a budget for the big boy monitors. All my products are web released for clients ... any advice or experience will be appreciated

I'm using the Beng SW271 and am very pleased with it. Use for both stills and video. Image quality is outstanding.

I was in Mac TLC in San Antonio not too long ago and they were showing a Benq with a Mac Mini.

I asked about it and the salesperson said it was the most affordable 27" monitor that approaches the quality of the iMac's IPS display.

Not sure for certain how true that statement is, but they do know their business at that store so I have no reason not to believe 'em.
